The Very Best Of Frankie Valli & The Four Seasons (CD)

In the 1960s, Frankie Valli & the Four Seasons churned out hit after hit to become one of the most successful vocal groups in pop history. Their signature was Valli's stratospheric falsetto, but their success also resulted from sharp, melodic songwriting. During their prime, singles like "Sherry" and "Walk Like a Man" emphasized close-harmony singing with an urban swagger, providing the missing link between doo wop and Motown-era pop. The group topped the charts again in the '70s with an updated, disco-influenced sound. There was a resurgence of interest in the Four Seasons in the early 2000s thanks to the hugely successful Broadway musical JERSEY BOYS about the history of the beloved group.

Released in 2002, this excellent 20-track collection, lovingly compiled by the Rhino label, features many of Frankie Valli's finest moments, both as part of the Four Seasons and on his own. While the majority of the disc focuses on the falsetto-voiced singer's string of 1960s hits with his impeccable Jersey boys that made up the Four Seasons, including the energetic, neo-doo-wopper "Sherry" and the optimistic "Let's Hang On (To What We've Got)," it also makes room for solo singles, such as the dreamy "Can't Take My Eyes Off You" and the funky theme from "Grease."
